Im is a 38-year-old construction worker. He is married and has one son and one daughter. Four years ago, his family moved to the city. His son works at a gasoline station and his daughter is an 11th grade student. Im’s wife sells fried bananas.
In August 2021, Im was in an accident while working and developed an open fracture and skin infection on his right big toe. After the accident, he received wound care and sutures at a clinic, but he still experiences pain, swelling and discharge from the wound. He’s worried about it worsening and continue to impact his day-to-day life.
When Im learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, he traveled for thirty minutes seeking treatment. On October 19th, surgeons at CSC will perform a debridement procedure to remove damaged and infected issue from the wound. Now, Im needs help to fund this $273 procedure.
Im shared, “I hope the wound heals quickly and my pain will stop.”
